Introducing a natural predator for them, or making them think you have, is what we did. Cats drive them away. We took the clumps from our litter box, put them in the tunnels and covered them with dirt. They moved on. There are predator scents you can buy at sporting goods and online if you don't want to use cat waste. There was no odor above ground. Yes, a gross method, but, effective.
Have you tried putting dollar store pinwheels or garden spinners all around your lawn ??? If not , try placing the stick end 5-7 inches into the groundball over your yard or where you see them the most . When the wind blows and they spin , it send a vibration down the stick and into the ground . Chipmunk , moles , & voles don't like this and should move on . Good luck !!!
Hi Cindy! Lisa again. Just saw your other three pics and I had a couple thoughts. First,you can close that gap in the back with with one or two paneling nails which you can buy cheaply at Lowe's hardware. Just be sure to center the nail and tap it in. Secondly, if the insides of the of all the drawers look like those I would not paint them on the inside, instead head to Marshalls and get some coordinating drawer liners. They are heavy waxed paper can you just cut them to fit! Super easy! Again, best of luck!!
This sounds disgusting but using dirty kitty litter worked for us. We had to "borrow" it from our neighbors but it worked for us.
Mary...I have seen traps on line but would read reviews to see what people say..Good luck
Hello there,
Call in the mole exterminator or contact your local authority and ask them for their advice..................Best wishes. You can buy Sonic devices online to deter them.
Hi Mary, moles don't like the smell of Castor Oil. Make sure to get it in granular or liquid form, not the stuff you buy at supermarkets. It's not strong enough and sprinkle it around the area.
Hello,
You really need help. Call in the local Mole catcher to rid you of them!
